What is your all time favourite film?

[givemesomehelp]

This threads probably been done before..
But anyway..
what's your all time favourite film? Something that you would go back and watch again? Even if it's a strange one. My all time favourite is Shawshank redemption.. I know, I know! I've been asked why because everyone else seems to think it's boring but I honestly love it. I'm going on maternity leave soon and know I'll end up wanting to watch films when I'm bored. Hopefully I can look at this thread when I'm struggling for a film to watch! I'll take your word for it that it's a good film!

The Wind That Shakes The Barley

Jagged Edge

The Shawshank Redemption

No Way Out

Sleeping With The Enemy

Witness

The Sound Of Music ( as a child)

I forgot 💗 Actually

I don't often watch films, I read more

Borderlands

Fargo

The Babadook

Rear Window

Bladerunner

Alien

City of God

Amores Perros

Crimes and Misdemeanors

Timecrimes

1 Cut of the Dead

Sympathy for Mr Vengeance (and the rest of the Vengeance Trilogy)

Cinema Paradiso, Palme d'Or winner version, not the lengthy self indulgent Director's Cut. Don't watch the wrong one. Set in Sicily, story of young fatherless boy and old childless cinema projectionist, is the director's (Giuseppe Tonnatore) own story. Sounds terrible. It's a fabulous feel good film that you'll watch more than once.

Hannibal
The Shining
I.T ( not the new one)
Fight club
The Green Mile
Doubly jeopardy
Cape Fear
Pacific Heights

Moulin Rouge

Fit actors - tick
Interesting story - tick

Twist - tick
And it’s got Keanu Reeves did I mention that?

Also love Shawshank Redemption. I had a real 'oh shit' moment. I love it when a film takes you by surprise.

The Departed, for the same reason. Great actors, characters and twists.

Slightly lighter films: When Harry Met Sally and One Fine Day.
